ABO, two male leads + equally matched leads + rekindled love + pure romance + happy ending
Cold, possessive S-rank Alpha x aloof, frail, universally adored Omega
Lin Xu was adopted by the Shen family at eleven. At seventeen, he was forced to take an S-17 inhibitor, leaving his gland with irreversible drug-induced trauma.
Zhou Yinghuai was an S-rank Alpha and, at the time, the Alliance’s most powerful candidate for council chair. But after Lin Xu asked to break up, Zhou was in a car accident on election day and completely forgot everything about Lin Xu.
Four years ago, on a rainy night, Lin Xu’s sudden phone call to break up severed every connection between them.
Four years later, Lin Xu returned to Ningcheng as a research adviser on inhibitors for the Alliance, while Zhou Yinghuai was successfully elected Alliance Council Chair.
Lin Xu hid his deep love behind polite, distant pleasantries, using a detached, businesslike manner to conceal the uncontrollable flutter in his gland every time he drew near Zhou Yinghuai.

Though Zhou Yinghuai had lost his memories, he was instinctively drawn to Lin Xu. “You’re different from everyone else to me.”
Lin Xu lowered his eyes, his voice as faint as mist. “It’s part of my job.”
When his memories finally returned and the truth came to light, Zhou Yinghuai held Lin Xu tightly in his arms and asked, eyes red, “A-Xu, when you said we ‘weren’t right for each other,’ were you lying to me, or to yourself?”
The regrets and pain of their youth would finally find a happy resolution amid the struggle between power and love.
